Metal Gear Solid 4 Guide - Gameplay Secrets

Shake the SIXAXIS while talking to Rose on the Codec to make her breasts wobble. On the third playthrough she changes her shirt. Talk to her after dying and you may have a conversation about how it feels as though you have died before.

In the mission briefings drive Metal Gear Mk. II to the radio upstairs to play music. Hit the TV and large screen that the Colonel appears on similarly to see models on the screens.

If it takes you longer than three minutes to kill the Boss Beauties (you can drag it out by moving away) the screen turns white and you can take pictures of them in various poses. Play "Oishii ChuhanSeikatsu" on the iPod in a Beauty fight to see them dance and pose.

Play "Oishii ChuhanSeikatsu" in a mission on the iPod and pause the game to see Sunny dancing to it.

You can also get 1,000 Drebin Points here by walking to the locker to hear an audio flashback.

In Act 4 if you are using a DUALSHOCK controller when fighting the Screaming Mantis boss you get an alternate cutscene once the ghost of Psycho Mantis appears. He tries to mimic his feat from MGS and activate the controller's vibration, celebrating the fact that it has returned. If you are using a SIXAXIS however, he complains about the lack of rumble and concedes that his powers are failing.

In Act 4 after the Crying Wolf boss fight kill one of the wolves in the area and the rest will attack you and Otacon and Rose will berate you if you Codec call them.

In Act 4 as you get to the lift to fight Vamp there is a Darth Vader helmet on the floor.
